This name isn't personally for me but I thought it could be interesting. For those who like using masculine names for girls what do you think of Bryanne or Bry-Anne, not like Brianne but BRYAN and ANNE mixed? I knew a Kevanne in high school and at first it was weird but now its normal to me. Ok enough rambling, thanks for your time!

Don't like Bryanne as Bryan and Anne, but I like Brianne.

Kevanne is ok. I've also heard Kevinagh, which I really like.

I guess Kev-EE-na, as in feminine for Kevin.

I would've liked Keivanne. Although it loses the Kevin reference a bit.
But generally, no, I don't like feminizing a name by adding -anne to it (like Rayanne, Kayanne and such)

I know a girl who's name is Bry-ana (Like bryan and anna mixed) I think names like that are pretty, (Not all of them obviously because some things were just NOT mixed to go together)

The girls sisters names are Brynell (Once again, bry, not bri) and Bryla.


Their fathers name is Bryan if you haven't already figured that out.


Btw your icon is hilarious.

I like Brianne/Breanne, but I don't like Bryanne. I dislike most "combined" names on principle.

I prefer traditional ones, too. I think most combined names are just...tacky.

I don't like it pronounced that way, but Brianne is cute. My horse is named Brianna, so maybe I'm biased.

I freaking love your icon. Mind if I use it for inspiration?

I always thought Brianne/a was pronounced like Brian/Anne mixed, until about a year ago 8).
I like it better pronounced Brianne though, than like a feminine form of Brian. But then again, I'm just not very fond of the name Brian, so ;)

I pronounce Brianne as Bree-ANN, how do you guys pronounce it?

Yeah I know pronounce it Bree-ANN too, but before, I thought it was pronounce Bri-ANN =P
And in Dutch I'd pronounce it Bree-AH-neh.

it annoys me that Brianne is not pronounced like Bri-anne, but rather Bree-anne. i guess because i love the name Brian/Bryan lol

my name is Brianna (prounounced Bree-aw-nuh) and I've had it mispronounced as Bree-Anne-Uh and Bry-Anna. I never would have thought that people would pronounce it it Bry but then again the person was Hungarian so that may have something to do with it.

I always thought it was such an easy and popular name, so im surprised how often its mispronounced.

A female version of Brian? I don't like it.
Nor Kevanne actually.

Why not Brianna...
